What's in a Name? To possess two distinctly alien red forpuscles in one's blood, metaphor- ically if not in fact, two characters or individualities under one epidermis. Is, in most cases, a peculiar disadvan- tage. One hears of scoundrels and saints striving to consume one an- other in one body, angels and har- .ples; but ofttimea, quite the contrary to being a curse, these two warring temperaments become a man's ulti- mate blessing: as in the case of George P. A. Jones, of Mortimer & Jones, the great metropolitan Oriental rug and carpet company, all of which has a dignified, sonorous sound. George was divided within himself. This he would not have confessed .-eveii into the trusted ifNbattered ear of the Egyptian Sphynx. There was, however, no demon-angel Bparr...

The How has not as yet been determined, the quality of the oil, but 1 six inch liner was put into the well Wednesday and pumping will begin immediately to tost the well. Mr. Brown stated that while they did not expect a gush- . er, still they were assured of a good flow and a paying well. His driller, also, states that tne chances for a paying well are of the best. This is probably only the beginning of the Caddo-Clin- ton Company's activities, which will end, we believe, in proving that Marion county is possessed of an inexhaustable oil Held.
